    I am happy with mine but the gas mileage sucks.

    Be more specific... You asking about the trucks, or their drivers?

    I had one and I loved it, but like Shallow said the gas mileage sucked. I was averaging around 14.5 mpg according to how the truck calculated it.

    My brother has one and does not like it. It is a stock pavement pounder and he has had issues with the front end and tire wear since new...in addition to the sucky gas mileage.

    Love mine. Gas mileage isn't the greatest but it's a truck, not a Prius.

    I had a 15 sr5 and a 16 limited both crew max.

    It gets truck like gas mileage because it has balls for an engine and a real set of gears for doing truck stuff. 16+ saw the much awaited larger 38 gallon tank. They do not have the all the bells and whistles that other trucks have, in that sense they are kinda boring. They are a “tighter” truck than the American/Mexico stuff from the big three. They just don’t get the rattles when hitting bumps like other trucks.

    I will probably end up back in one sooner than later. They are just boringly reliable.

    Love mine. Terrible on gas but strong as goat piss. I get about 14 around town 16/17 on the hwy.

    Edit: Tbh I only like the CrewMax all the other models are ugly imo.

    Dad's got a Tundra with a lot of miles on it and it's carried a lot of dead deer. It's been close to flawless and entirely dependable for a long, long time.

    I'm on my second and I don't have any complaints. It's a truck and it gets truck gas mileage.

    Had a 07' double cab with the 4.7L 2WD and loved it, now I have a 10' double cab with the 5.7L 4x4 and am really liking it but I've only had it for a couple months. Wish they made the crew max with a 6.5' bed. Also if you're looking at a used one some models had an issue with rust in the bed which I unfortunately am seeing on my 2010. google T-SB-0101-12 for info

    What are you considering other than the Tundra, HS? The 1794s really do it for me. Probably will be what my next one is

    I bought a 04 from Otter1200. Truck is solid, has more room than you'd think, and torque for days. Gas mileage, not so much.

    My buddy has had 3 Tundras. The 1st one had 220k miles before he gave it to a relative. The 2nd one went 250k before he gave it to another relative. His current one had about 80k on it. We are taking it to Illinois this weekend and pulling a Polaris. We took it to NJ earlier this year as well. They ride nice but as mentioned has mileage bites. But the thing has a huge gas tank.

    I don't remember him having any problems with any of them. Last time we spoke he said his old ones are still going strong.

    Pros; everything
    Cons; gas mileage.
    Boringly reliable was a perfect description

    to answer your question:

    No, I do not like people that drive Tundras.
